Uncle Jiu's Senior Brother

Chapter 124 The Underworld

Just when Lu Li was immersed in cultivation.

Two strangely dressed people came from outside Tengteng Town.

We call them humans because they still retain their human appearance.

But his face was extremely pale, as if he had been painted with powder.

The clothes she wore did not seem to be made of silk or linen.

But paper-like clothes.

When walking, his heels do not touch the ground, and he taps his toes lightly with each step, and a distance of more than ten meters is covered in a flash.

It's as if the ground itself is moving with no apparent effort at all.

"Brother Hei, this town feels different today. Why is it so quiet?"

The strange man in the white paper robe spoke first.

"Yeah, when we passed by here before, we could smell the stench of the zombies from miles away. Why is it gone today?"

The man in black robe also said in confusion.

"Not only that, but the trap outside the town seems to have been moved again. How about we go in and take a look?"

The man in white robe obviously liked to watch the fun and felt itchy at the moment.

"Forget it, let's just wait and see. It's still early anyway, so we can catch him without delay."

After that, the two of them floated into the town.

The two of them didn't even see a single zombie along the way.

"This is really weird. Don't those guys usually love to bask in the moonlight?"

"Why don't we walk forward and take a look at the restaurant?"

The two of them quickened their pace and headed towards the restaurant where Lu Li was fighting.

"This is?"

When they arrived at the restaurant, they were surprised to find that the zombies were all dead.

Although there are only a hundred or so corpses, they are all high-level zombies.

The two of them could tell at a glance that there was a zombie corpse inside.

There was a big hole going through his heart, and smoke was still coming out of it. He must have been killed instantly.

In the past, when the two of them passed by here at night, the jumping zombie would often roar at them.

"Behave yourself now, stop yelling at your Master Bai."

The man in white robe just felt happy. If the opponent didn't have so many men, he would have hit him with a stick long ago.

"Old Bai, look at the corpses. The people who killed them used thunder magic, and it seems like they just left not long ago."

The man in black robe looked through the corpses.

The man in white robe had no idea whether the person who attacked him was a good person or a bad person, although most people would not attack them, the evildoers.

But don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality.

It's possible that you might run into a fool who would kill for fun.

This kind of thing has happened many times before.

"Brother Hei, do you think we won't run into that guy?"

"Let's go!"

The man in black robe responded while staring in one direction.

"Brother Hei, what did you say......?"

Before the man in white robe finished speaking, he followed the direction the man in black robe was looking and saw a young Taoist squatting on the roof in front of them.

At this moment, I was listening to their conversation with great interest.

The man in white robe turned around and tried to run.

"Why go?"

A clear voice sounded, and Lu Li stood up straight.

Lu Li was originally meditating when he saw these two people entering the town in his consciousness.

It seemed that these two people knew Tiaozhuang, so they came out to take a look.

"I have a stomachache and I want to find a place to relieve myself."

The man in white robe has been working as a ghost messenger for hundreds of years, and this young Taoist priest has not leaked any breath.

He doesn't look like an easy person to get along with.

He probably killed these zombies.

If he met such a master normally, the man in white robe would run away without saying a word.

But there is a trap in Teng Teng Town, and you can't escape even if you want to.

The two of them were just stupid, why did they have to come in to watch the fun?

Now it's wrinkled.

"Stomachache? Then go to the toilet!"

Lu Li said jokingly.

The man in black robe was smarter and realized that Lu Li didn't look like a bad person.

"I am Hei Liu and this is Bai Shisan. We are the messengers of the two Wuchangs, Hei Bai and Bai Bai. We just happened to pass by here. Please help us, Taoist Priest."

It turned out to be a ghost. I thought he was a little devil from some mountain. His dress really did have some ghost vibe.

"You two should have said so earlier. I thought it was the zombies' helpers. Now that it's the ghost messenger, it's fine."

Lu Li turned into a flash of lightning and appeared in front of Hei Liu and the other man.

The two of them were startled.

What kind of cultivation is this?

If he wanted to kill the two of us, it would probably only take the blink of an eye.

"I am Lu Li, the elder of Mount Mao. I came here to deal with the zombie problem. I was taking a break when I saw you two come in and there was almost a misunderstanding."

Lu Li explained with a smile.

Turns out he’s from Maoshan, so there’s nothing wrong with that.

Most of the people in Maoshan are our own people.

"Haha! It turns out to be one of our own. I was so scared that I thought I was going to be in trouble today."

I heard that Lu Li was from Maoshan and had no ill intentions.

Bai Shisan was completely relieved and returned to his cheerful self.

However, Lu Li heard something different from Bai Shisan's words.

"One of our own? Bai Yincha said that?"

"He's right. The relationship between you Maoshan and our underworld is special."

It was Hei Liu who explained to Lu Li.

"Except for the few who have ascended to heaven, the rest of Maoshan have basically served in the underworld. They can be said to be the reserve force of the underworld."

Is Maoshan so awesome down there?

"No wonder, those old guys in the mountains are not afraid of death at all. It turns out that death is more comfortable than life."

"Of course. If you are alive, you will be encumbered by your body. If you go down, you will become younger. Besides, the conditions down there are no worse than those on earth."

Bai Shisan began to tell Lu Li how well the underworld was now built.

"Thank you very much, otherwise I really wouldn't know about these obstacles. I don't know why my Maoshan senior rarely comes up."

Hei Liu and Bai Shisan looked at each other.

Lu Li knew that it might be inconvenient to talk so he took the two of them to the side and set up a soundproof barrier.

"It seems a little inconvenient for you two to talk?"

It was Hei Liu who said, "That's not a problem. You are half one of us. Master Lu, do you plan to cultivate the way of immortality in the future?"

Lu Li nodded. He hadn't even found a girlfriend yet, so of course he was planning to become an immortal.

Bai Shisan took over the conversation.

“Since you are cultivating the way of immortality, you will understand that after Zhuanxu severed the connection between heaven and earth, the immortals can no longer descend to the mortal world at will, and the same is true for the underworld.

In the underworld, except for the ghost messengers who can come out to guide the souls, no other people are allowed to come up at will.

Unless approved by the hall masters, you can see that Lord Black and Lord White rarely come out now.

The same is true for those of you who work in the underworld from Maoshan. You can pass on messages, but you can’t come up and interfere in human affairs directly.”

Lu Li finally understood. No wonder many Taoist sects declined in later generations and there was no help from the ancestors.

It's not that I don't want to, but I can't do anything.

"You are good at Maoshan. Now one of you has made it to the top. I can't say anything about the rest."

Bai Shisan mentioned it cautiously.

Lu Li understood immediately.

In the future, when you go down to do things, you will have someone to protect you. No wonder Uncle Jiu became the bank boss in Renjia Town. He must have someone under Maoshan.

Lu Li saw that these two had said so much, and he couldn't let them talk in vain.

He took out two sticks of Yincao incense from the Nawu Talisman, lit them and placed them in front of them.

When the two saw the Yincaoxiang in Lu Li's hand, they were like drunkards seeing fine wine.

This is a good thing, unique to Maoshan.

Yin grass is taken from the cold heart grass that grows in extremely cold places. A piece of land of several acres is only as big as a coffin.

Roast and grind to make incense.

It is extremely nourishing to ghosts, and is also refined out of fear that the disciples' souls will be damaged.

Last time, Lu Li and Uncle Jiu found a bundle in the Maoshan warehouse, which was divided between the two of them.

"Thank you, Taoist Lu. If you have any problems in the future, you can come to us directly."

Bai Shisan took out a token and handed it to Lu Li.

Lu Li took it and saw the word 13 written on the front, and a palace engraved on the back.

Look carefully at the plaque in the main hall and you will see the word "Yinsi" written on it.

Hei Liu also said: "Although the Taoist priest has a high level of cultivation, if we encounter ghosts or something like that, we two brothers can still be of some use down there, so Taoist priest Lu doesn't need to make another trip."

"Thank you both very much."

The two of them said they didn't dare. With Lu Li's cultivation level, even the judge would give him some face, not to mention that he was an elder of Maoshan.

It was already late, and the two had important things to do, so they said goodbye to Lu Li.

After leaving the town, he turned into smoke and went on a mission.

Looking back on this night, Lu Li felt that he had gained a lot.

Not only did I gain a lot of merit by getting rid of the zombies, but I also learned a lot about the underworld.

Maybe it will be useful in the future.

Seeing that it was still dark, Lu Li had no choice but to go back to his room to continue meditating.

Wait until dawn and then return to Maoshan.
